SELLERSRODSHOP 13 Report post Posted July 8, 2009 damn, was just there a couple weeks ago..... did see a nice 71 vert while i was there! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
70mstang 11 Report post Posted July 9, 2009 I've been to all of them but one since they started back in 2002. Very fun time .. not enough classics show up though. I feel bad driving my Chevy pickup to the activities, but it's what I got for now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SlimeGold 69 15 Report post Posted July 12, 2009 (edited) Wish I could make it. There is no Ford/Mustang shows close to me now. I used to go to every Fun Ford Weekend at Bristol Dragway (about 1hr drive for me) but that is no more. It was mostly late model stuff but It was a all Ford event with a car show, swap meet and tons of vendors. Myrtle Beach is about a 6 hour drive. I did find a upcoming event (NMRA Ford Nationals) at Lowe's Speedway NC in Aug. I was thinking about making the 190mi trip if it's worth it. Anyone ever been??? Sorry to hijack!

70mstang 11 Report post Posted July 12, 2009 Myrtle is 6 hours from me too, coming from the far side of Atlanta but I have a free place to stay so it's not so bad to go for the week. I'll be driving out of here on Sunday. The Gate City Triad Mustang Club was a great club when I lived up in Greensboro NC. It sounds like they might be fairly close to ya.

70mstang 11 Report post Posted July 25, 2009 Had a little rain yesterday but I was able to get Steve Saleen to sign my cap & poster. Here's a few pics from the shows. The final cruise in is today and the weather is expected to be sunny! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kllerbee 10 Report post Posted July 25, 2009 Cant tell if the color on the vert is cream or yellow or a combination. Maybe its the monitor. Whatever color it is it is a sharp ride. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
70mstang 11 Report post Posted July 25, 2009 It's a chevy S-10 color believe it or not .. something like scorching yellow. Nice fella, I spent a long time talking with him and snapping many pics so I can figure out how to modify my stinking repop rear quaters that have the 3 body lines versus the proper 2 body lines. Notice the 69 rear side marker lights? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kllerbee 10 Report post Posted July 25, 2009 Yes I saw the marker lights, Im thinking he just put 69 repro pannels in? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nice fella, I spent a long time talking with him and snapping many pics so I can figure out how to modify my stinking repop rear quaters that have the 3 body lines versus the proper 2 body lines. Notice the 69 rear side marker lights? Actually it's 2003 Chroma Premier Yellow. It came on the 2004 Chevy Blazer Extreme Truck. I was driving by Jeff Gordon Chevrolet in Wilmington, NC when I saw it, stopped in and stole the paint code... The quarters are repops that at the time only came in 69. When I asked about the 70 they replied I would just need to cut the holes bigger to fit the larger 70 side marker lights. One day I will...just not today.

70mstang 11 Report post Posted July 27, 2009 Welcome to the site Scott!

BumbleBeest 10 Report post Posted July 27, 2009 Thank you Ed. I don't usually visit the forums that often but I'll try to check in when I can. I have owned 69 and 70 stangs for many many years and can answer questions based on that experience if needed. I've owned a couple older ones too (66,68) but my passion is with the 69/70 style. Mustang week was great again. Having one of very few classic stangs there certainly brings the attention. I cruised Ocean Blvd both Friday & Saturday nights and got complimented down the entire strip as usual by a ton of people walking or sitting streetside. As much as the new ones are cool looking, there's nothing like pulling up in a classic to get the crowd on it's feet and screaming! It just proves all the hard work wrenching and money spent in the garage really pays off. Scott Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cupid 10 Report post Posted July 27, 2009 Welcome aboard Scott! I'm glad you had a chance to drop it. It was good meeting you. Somehow I neglected to call you Ed. Sorry about that. Tim Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
